Outline of Final Research Achievements	Successful bronchial healing after a bronchoplastic procedure mainly depends on bronchial circulation at the anastomostic site. We developed a bronchial fluorescein angiography (B-FAG) technique for visualizing circulation on the bronchial surface. The technique was evaluated in animals. Bronchial fluorescein angiography clearly visualized the circulatory status promptly after the anastomosis procedure at the central bronchus. This technique is a potentially practical approach to predict ischaemic airway complications following bronchial anastomosis.
